   	19th International Conference 
   	on Foundations of Software Science 
   	and Computation Structures. 
  
                  --- (FoSSaCS) ---

    Eindhoven, The Netherlands, April 2016.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

FoSSaCS seeks original papers on foundational research with a clear significance for software science. The conference invites submissions on theories and methods to support the analysis, integration, synthesis, transformation, and verification of programs and software systems. The specific topics covered by the conference include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • categorical models and logics;
  • language theory, automata, and games;
  • modal, spatial, and temporal logics;
  • type theory and proof theory;
  • concurrency theory and process calculi;
  • rewriting theory;
  • semantics of programming languages;
  • program analysis, correctness, transformation, and verification;
  • logics of programming;
  • software specification and refinement;
  • models of concurrent, reactive, stochastic, distributed, hybrid, and mobile systems;
  • emerging models of computation;
  • logical aspects of computational complexity;
  • models of software security;
  • logical foundations of data bases

Important dates and submission

See the ETAPS 2016 joint call for papers. Submit your paper via the FoSSaCS 2016 author interface of Easychair.

FoSSaCS accepts only research papers (max 15 pp). FoSSaCS 2016 will use a rebuttal phase. Dates: 2-4 December 2015.
